A Life Debt Repaid novel Chapter 742

Lucas was alone, and Nana was not in sight.

Richard saw him too, and excitement showed in his eyes.

His enthusiasm never dampened whenever he saw Lucas—he did not talk to Lucas earlier at the hospital because the atmosphere there had been grim.

However, he refrained from going up to Lucas, and the thought that his daddy had abandoned his mommy made him upset again.

Lucas was actually surprised to see them there.

Should they not be staying at Cranston Hall?

Cordy was also surprised to see Lucas there, since he should be staying with the Lynds.

It was as if they would inevitably run into each other if they were in the same city…

"Ms. Sachs?" the front desk receptionist called out to Cordy just then. "Your room card..."

"I'm checking out," Cordy said determinedly right then.

Lucas clearly blinked just then.

"Checking out, Ms. Sachs?" the receptionist asked, to confirm what she said.

"Yeah. I'm not staying here," Cordy said bluntly.

"Oh, alright. One moment please," the receptionist replied politely and professionally.

"Why?" Lucas ultimately could not resist asking.

"There are people I'd rather not see around here," Cordy said bluntly.

Lucas was left scowling, while Cordy waited until the receptionist was done with the paperwork and started to leave with Richard without delay.

"Cordy," Lucas called out from behind just then.

It was already too late when Cordy noticed it was coming at her, as it was already crashing toward her.

She pulled Richard into her arms by instinct, holding him tightly to shield her boy.

Richard did not realize what was happening because his eyes were fixed on Lucas, until he saw Lucas' face fall in panic.

He soon felt his mommy gathering him into her arms… and at the next instant, he heard an immense crash reverberating right beside his ears, while feeling his mommy's body shaking endlessly.

Richard had no idea what happened, just as Cordy's mind went blank.

She did not know if the motorcycle actually struck them, and she could not even feel any pain.

"Mommy."

Richard was calling out to her because she was holding him so tightly he almost could not breathe…
